    Strap yourselves in

    Over the last 15 games we have went from one of the higher scoring teams in the league to the 2nd lowest - St Mirren lowest.

    Yet somehow in those games we have picked up more points than Aberdeen, St Mirren, Killie and Livvy.
    In fact the same 4 teams have picked up less points than us in last 5 games.
    Unlikely but we could be in trouble if these teams suddenly start winning.
    Here's a realistic possibility for those that think we are safe.

    All our remaining pre split games are huge inc cup game, for me the 2 priority ones are St Mirren and Livvy.
    St Mirren game on Tues is huge, if they win we are 3 pts above 10th and we play Dundee - who would go above us with a win- and old firm in our next 3 games before last pre split game v Livvy.

    By then Killie could have beat Livvy thus 6pts behind us and their last pre split home game is against Dundee who may literally have nothing to play for.

    If we continue to lose games inc against St Mirren and Livvy, I think we could well be 11th, especially with our post split record under Jim, however we could also reach cup final.

    Finishing 11th and getting to final may be very unlikley but as the title says, brace yourselves for an uncomfortable ride.

    Edited to add that Aberdeen should really be more worried than us. On currenr form I can easily see a last day scenario of Utd v Aberdeen final game decider to avoid play off spot.
